Three For What Used To Be 4

Sure, TV has featured transgender characters, but there's never been anything quite like what Ryan Murphy (Nip/Tuck) wants to put on the small screen with his new pilot, the one formerly known as 4 oz. (the weight of the "average" penis).

Murphy's now unnamed comedy/drama is about a man actually in the process of transitioning to womanhood.

In the wake of Felicity Huffman's Oscar nomination for Transamerica, finding an actor willing to walk a mile in heels was probably easy, but Murphy has chosen Shakespeare in Love star Joseph Fiennes from the pool of wannabe ladies.

Meanwhile, Blythe Danner and Robert Wagner are also on board as Fiennes' parents. Murphy already directed Fiennes once, in the little-seen Running with Scissors.

Here's hoping this second collaboration will meet a kinder fate.
